There is a brouhaha over this picture posted by Celtic Diva on her Alaskan progressive blogsite. Again, the morons of the Palin camp are SPINNING this picture to be about "the special needs child." Apparently, it is much easier to pick on the (according to snotty Sarah) bloggers who sit around all day in their pajamas, blogging about things they know nothing about. That would be the Palin Way!

By photo-shopping this picture - to the truly intelligent, it actually takes the "special needs child" out of the equation. DUH!?!? The connection is being made of Palin's close ties/connections to Eddie Burke and his racist, bigotted, white supremacy ideas.

Celtic Diva doggedly searches out the facts, and was the one who filed an ethics complaint against Palin, when she was wearing the special green sportswear (for Arctic Cat), during husband Todd's run. Unfortunately, her complaint was apparently thrown out for one reason or another - I would assume the reason would be Palin influence. I know it was ethically wrong and the majority of people also felt that way - but who can argue with the Alaskan legislature?

The following was from a statement sent to Politico from a Palin spokesperson - probably the equally vacuumed brained Stapleton woman.

Recently we learned of a malicious desecration of a photo of the Governor and baby Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child.

The mere idea of someone doctoring the photo of a special needs baby is appalling. To learn that two Alaskans did it is absolutely sickening. Linda Kellen Biegel, the official Democrat Party blogger for Alaska, should be ashamed of herself and the Democratic National Committee should be ashamed for promoting this website and encouraging this atrocious behavior.

Babies and children are off limits. It is past time to restore decency in politics and real tolerance for all Americans. The Obama Administration sets the moral compass for its party. We ask that special needs children be loved, respected and accepted and that this type of degeneracy be condemned.

The blogger, Linda Kellen Biegel of "Blue Oasis," responded:

To those folks at a certain Palinbot site who think the picture above is of Trig, let me use a phrase many of you are familiar with...

YOU FAIL AT LIFE!!!!!!

It's called "Baby Burke" because it's Eddie Burke...basically his probable second-biggest fantasy about the Governor.

The photo was used to promote a fundraiser to request Palin administration records of "potentially questionable conversations between with "preferred" members of the media."

Excuse me, I take offense at the very first paragraph of the statement. Since when has this particular picture become an "iconic representation" of a mothers love for a special needs child. Is this picture hanging in a museum somewhere with that designation?

As said in the past, she chose to put her children in the forefront during the failed campaign. No way in hell, does this photo-shopped picture denigrate her children. It expresses her closeness to right wingnut bigotry and hypocrisy.

Keep up the good work Celtic Diva - you have an army of supporters.

It is amazing how these fucking morons honestly believe that this statement is even worth the release.
